"This old Chiang Kai-shek is too petty! As for being so fussy about a little guy like me?" The instructions from the central government finally arrived in Zhu Bin's hands after many days of waiting. After seeing them, they immediately aroused a burst of complaints.

But sitting opposite him, Minister Chen Shaokuan, who was visiting his office with great interest, smiled lightly, as if everything was expected: "You are not a small person. In the minds of many people in the government now, you are even less concerned.

No less than the rebellion of Fujian and Jiangxi."

"No, is it that serious?"

Zhu Bin was startled, what a great deal those talented people from Fujian and Jiangxi were! They had ideas, missions, people, horses, horses, and reputations. This was the most serious problem on Chairman Chiang's mind. He mobilized almost all his forces and surrounded him on all sides with hundreds of thousands of land and sea troops.

The shouting is huge. Compared to Zhu, someone with three or two small shrimps, is it worth the boss's eyelids?

Saying this, Zhu Bin did not forget to pour tea for Minister Chen diligently. In any case, the Chairman of the Generalissimo who was far away in the capital was still far away from him, but the general in front of him was his reliable supporter.

What a giant umbrella!

Chen Shaokuan returned to China at the end of May. After a short briefing in Nanjing, he was too lazy to pay attention to the rude impeachment of Ding Mocun, Gao Youtang and others. He did whatever they wanted, but refused to resign as Minister of the Navy in accordance with their wishes and simply left the mess.

The Ministry of the Navy came to Shanghai to inspect the work progress of the Jiangnan Shipbuilding and Offshore Equipment Institute.

This reason is very sufficient and legitimate, and no one else can say anything, especially when Dean Wang Zhaoming refuses to pay the regular expenses of the Navy, and even refuses to pay the tuition fees for expatriate students studying in the UK.

He showed concern and care for Chen Shaokuan, and his hypocrisy was disgusting. Chen Shaokuan couldn't stand it anymore, and he was afraid that he couldn't help it, so he had to avoid it.

Zhu Bin entrusted the recruitment matters to Wang Pingnan and Yu Baoguo. Wang Kaishan and others were responsible for it. After gathering the number of people, they sent them to the Zhoushan Island base to start formal training. Apart from visiting him every now and then, he spent most of his time relying on

In the temporary office in Jiangnan Shipyard, he was staring at the progress of several projects. Especially in the past few days, the first fully hand-assembled fighter jet was about to be completed. As the first flagship product to be launched on the market, he, who was mainly responsible for

People definitely have to sit down.

After the intense review by Wang Zhu and others, the low-wing, all-metal-skinned fighter, named the x211 fighter, was immediately manufactured based on the engine and nose given by Zhu Bin, using the original material warehouse.

Non-specialized equipment was assembled, and after nearly twenty days, it was almost completed.

Chen Shaokuan happened to meet him when he arrived and refused to leave. He insisted on seeing the first flight of the fighter plane - you know, he, an admiral, knew the importance of naval aviation more deeply than many British and American military experts!

By the way, he discovered that Zhu Bin had displayed a large number of weapons and equipment that was about to be designed and produced by the Future Marine Equipment Institute. His interest was greatly increased, and he had to learn more about them.

Seeing Zhu Bin being aggrieved by the government's manipulation, Chen Shaokuan felt funny in his heart. While fiddling with a battleship model with a novel structure on the shelf, he casually said: "Don't underestimate yourself. How many people in today's world can do this?"

Go to battle to kill enemies and make meritorious deeds, go to sea to do business and mobilize billions of dollars in capital with just one move? Go to the United States and you can cooperate with top giants like Rockefeller, and within a few days after returning home you can gather a group of talented people to work for you? Who has such influence?

Don’t look sideways? If you are allowed to develop like this for a few years, you will have a place in the government. Can those people sit still?"

Zhu Bin curled his lips and snorted: "Do you really think I care about their official positions and power? They fight all day long, eat nothing, and are of no use to the country. I won't even be invited."

Chen Shaokuan shook his head, pointed at him and said: "Be tough. Okay, let's not talk about this. Just say that your maritime equipment institute has only been established for a few days, and it has actually produced many new products of various weapons and equipment. At the investment meeting in July

It will definitely make a big splash. By then, it will be no problem to sell millions of orders, and the wealth will be rolling in, and many people will be envious. By then, I will be in trouble!"

Zhu Bin chuckled. Chen Shaokuan did not blame him at all. In order to solve the problem quickly, he has come up with many new things in recent days. In addition to the new fighter plane that is about to be completed, Wang Zhu and the others have designed several water patrols before.

The training aircraft has been modified and equipped with a Pratt & Whitney 1535 engine. The speed has been increased to more than 320 kilometers. The cockpit and engine casing have been equipped with key protective armor, a 12.7mm heavy machine gun and a photography device. It has been suddenly replaced by a cannon. It has been set as the standard for the armed freighter that is about to be completed.

Of course, the equipment is only for the dozen or so ships under Zhu Bin's own name, those of the "Global Communications" company and the defense company. It will be known until the global investment fair in July to compete with manufacturers from various countries.

It's hard to say about seaplanes. The x211 fighter jet is definitely unmatched. By then, the defense company will purchase at least 24 of them, and the training aircraft will definitely be needed. With Zhu Bin's reputation, there will be no problem.

Then, Zhu Bin took out a lot of samples of infantry weapons and equipment, made improvements based on Colt and other American rifles, and designed a 10-round magazine with short bullets based on the m1903 Springfield rifle.

A semi-automatic rifle that shortens the high-power 7.62x63mm bullet to the size of 7.62x51mm. The power and accuracy are not reduced, and the rate of fire is faster.

In addition, a light machine gun is designed based on the German mg30 machine gun, which also uses 7.62x51mm bullets, as well as a 12.7mm air-cooled heavy machine gun modified from the Browning M2, and even a 25mm version modified from the Oerlikon 20mm machine gun, etc.

There are more than 80 kinds of small weapons.

In addition, there are three types of light mortars of 60mm, 81mm, and 105mm, a 76.2mm infantry gun, several armored vehicles, and even two tanks! Based on the ca-1 type A load-carrying truck that has just completed the prototype, the design

We have produced a series of military transport vehicles, tractors, engineering vehicles, etc., in a wide variety of styles.

In addition, flat-bottomed landing craft ranging from 100 tons to 800 tons, amphibious assault landing ships with a maximum of 4,000 tons, destroyers and frigates of multiple classes from 1,000 to 4,000 tons, and shallow-water gunboats with a maximum displacement of tens of thousands of tons, the displacement

There are submarines over 600 tons.

Various models and samples filled the entire office. After Chen Shaokuan came in, he was dazzled by what he saw, but he couldn't put it down. Especially a large battleship with a full load displacement of 46,000 tons made him even more excited. After seeing the giant American ships and cannons,

He always dreamed about these steel monsters! But Zhu Bin swore to him that everything in the house would be built!

Chen Shaokuan knew exactly how many people and guns there were in the so-called Maritime Equipment Institute, because they were all assigned with his consent. The largest ones at present were those in the aircraft design team. Other ships and light and heavy weapons were, to put it harshly, domestic.

There are not many that can be used, and Zhu Bin also admitted that many of them come from the mysterious "gd laboratory". Chen Shaokuan can't control that much. Anyway, they provide the design for free to Haizhuang Institute and build it.

The Admiralty can make money by selling it, but in his current situation, can he really care about that?

The bidding meeting of the "Global Express Logistics" company in July will gather arms dealers and industrial product suppliers from all over the world. By then, Zhu Bin, a guy who has learned a lot about everything, will definitely be able to sell a lot of these products, but the Ministry of the Navy wants to

Bear the pressure for him, whether it is domestic or foreign.

After all, Chen Shaokuan is happy to resist such pressure. The more these products are sold, the richer the Navy will be, and it will be able to manufacture more warships and weapons. Only when it becomes stronger can it compete with Japan and other powers, so his tree

The big tree cannot fall. Only by resisting can we have a bright future for the navy!

"Don't worry about these things. I'll take care of everything. Tell me about the parameters of your battleship. I'm interested in it." Chen Shaokuan pointed at the model that was more than two meters long.

"Yes!" Boss Chen spoke up. Zhu Bin didn't have to use his brains to deal with those politicians. He saluted happily and reported a series of data casually, "'Taishan-class' battleship, standard displacement: 36,000 tons, full load displacement 46,000 tons

tons, the length of the ship is 230 meters, the maximum beam is 34 meters, the average draft is 9.5 meters, the maximum draft is 10.5 meters. Power: 8 heavy oil boilers, 4 steam turbines, 4 five-blade propellers, the main engine output power is 130,000 shaft horsepower. Maximum speed

:32 knots, endurance: 16,500 nautical miles/17 knots, 6,000 nautical miles/28 knots!”

"Armament: 3 triple-mounted 406mm/45-caliber main guns, two in front of the turret and one in the back, 10 twin-mounted 127mm high-level dual-purpose guns (5 on each side), 12 twin-mounted 76.2mm guns

Anti-aircraft guns, and 30 20mm twin "Oerlikon" anti-aircraft guns!"

"Armor (inches): waterline 14; compartments 13; turret front 18, top and sides 9-11; conning tower 18-16; deck 9, main deck 3-1.5. Total armor weight 12,000 tons. Crew: design organization

1,600 people (including: 100 officers and 1,500 soldiers)!"

"A very powerful battleship! It seems to be similar to their new design ship I saw in the United States, but the anti-aircraft firepower seems to be more powerful!" Chen Shaokuan listened and compared in his mind, and couldn't help but admire it!

The fingers caressed and gently stroked the gun barrel, which seemed to contain unparalleled attack power despite being reduced in size a hundred times, and swept over the elegant clipper bow, the slightly fluttering high freeboard, the clean flat deck, and the scattered

The neat secondary battery, the smallest 20mm anti-aircraft gun, is not even thicker than a matchstick but is still subtle, accurate and flawless. The smooth-looking command tower, the single inclined chimney and the two masts are arranged in the center line. There are a total of 113 large and small artillery pieces in the small

It doesn’t even look crowded on a small model! The oval cruiser’s stern perfectly hugs the hull, and the peculiar five-blade propeller looks exceptionally well-proportioned.

Zhu Bin laughed shamelessly, not even saying that this was actually the version Serena copied after peeking at someone else's drawings. Of course, the anti-aircraft firepower was greatly enhanced. At first glance, it looked like a turret jungle.

After adding the radar fire control system and close defense, the small number of fighter jets that slowly come up to bomb will definitely be a tragedy!

"If there are four battleships like this, plus three aircraft carriers, and a dozen new destroyers and submarines like yours, why worry about not being able to defeat the Japanese fleet?!" Chen Shaokuan sighed longingly, turning to stare at Zhu Bin.

, "You said it can be built within five years?!"
Chapter completed!
